I think although the playoffs were dam good, I mean more excitement than weve seen for decades, winning has proven to be our downfall. The owners had a 5 year plan and we got to the promised land in 1.....but was we prepared, no. did we have the squad, no. Did we have the quality, no.
To build any team takes years, look at Leeds, they have been banging on the door for the last few seasons and now will get to their goal. they, will do better than us because the team is almost the same team for the past 3 years. This is the model and the same can be said for sheff utd. The exception is Wolves, they gambled while in the championship but it worked, right manager, right scout, right players, i mean CL standard.
We, well we had a mixed buch, mainly loans and Jack. SJM was the suprize package. The team was dismantled and we spent 120mill but we had to, we did not have 12 players in our squad!! Yes we could have bought better quality but we were against the clock.

We had a plan and we would have been better off sticking to it. We will go down, it kills me to say it but we can learn from it. We need a quality TEAM A winning team and we need to win the Championship and come up with the nuclious of a winning team with some top top additions. There is a chance of staying up although its a small chance, either way, yes its a rebuild and some tough decisions coming up that some may not like but it may just be for the better!
I am dreaming and hoping for an upset tonight, we can do it, we just have to believe we can.
Lose and its almost over, good job the Ammers lost last night, lets take advantage of that!!
2-1 Villa
